MOURNING DOVE2023 | Graphite on lokta paper  
Graphite drawing collaging memories from childhood of waking up early to walk to school on a cool misty morning, just after it had rained the night before. As I walked I would often hear the coo of mourning doves, and observe the fallen crab apples on the ground and dew drops hanging from blades of grass or spiderwebs.
